50 pounds down, yet A1C went up?

50 pounds down, yet A1C went up?

Hi guys, this time last year I was over 235 pounds at 5 11 (M), with a 4.9 A1C and 72 non fasted glucose. This time around, I’m 195 and 17% body fat, active, and weight lift. My A1C went up to 6.1!!! I’m at a lost for words. My glucose is also super low after eating a ton before the lab test at 74. What gives. I’ve actively changed my lifestyle for the better and I’m somehow worse off. No kidding, I got a vasovagol repsonse form getting this news, almost fainted, heart rate lowered to low 40’s, my RHH is typically high 50’s to low 60’s. What gives? I’m lost. Advice needed.
